Prospective Student

Thank you for looking into the Missional Training Center. There are many good options for theological education both in the Valley and online. We hope to give you the information you need about MTC to help you make the best decision for you and your calling.

Since MTC is a unique program it is more helpful for you to learn about it face to face rather than on a website. So start by browsing the website and if you are interested to know more please contact us at info@surgenetwork.com to set up a meeting. There are three more things to consider: 1) it is important that your church and pastor/leadership to recommend you for inclusion; 2) a helpful way to learn about MTC is through information meetings set up to inform prospective participants; 3) we have more applications than we can accept and so be certain you are ready to commit to four years.
